Nothing to see here.

Account abandoned due to Daddy Dang personally disliking my sarcasm or tone, not because guidelines were being broken.

Enforce consistently or not at all.

DEADMINCE··on Modern CSS Layouts: You Might Not Need a Framework for That
> but we still run it through sass because enough customers are using Android or older versions of Chrome that don't support the nesting.

How does sass help in this instance?

DEADMINCE··on Quake in 13kb (2021)
If you go with the logic of the deleted scene, it's like asking if an 80s programmer with no knowledge of modern hardware or software could still make a virus that would infect modern systems, which makes it significantly easier to swallow.
DEADMINCE··on Quake in 13kb (2021)
That was more the aliens being arrogant than humans doing anything.
DEADMINCE··on Quake in 13kb (2021)
That doesn't entirely follow, though. Just because you could talk to the alien computers doesn't mean you could execute a program on them. IMO the deleted scene is the only way it can make sense.
DEADMINCE··on Signal: Will leave the EU market rather than undermine our privacy guarantees
If the traffic can't be identified and it isn't a known endpoint, then that's already suspicious.

Which website is that?

> The only important differences in throughput between Intel and AMD

Not exactly related, but AMD also has a much better track record when it comes to speculative execution attacks.

That's news to crypto miners.

Rollback netcode might be good for games, not so much for conversations.
DEADMINCE··on Quake in 13kb (2021)
Sure, and that makes perfect sense, since earth tech was based on the alien tech they found in the Roswell crash.

Shame they deleted the scene explaining all that. It's still easy to find though.

> Will my email client using SMIME have to implement this? Seems kind of ridiculous.

Seems about right for the EU.

DEADMINCE··on Should I use JWTs for authentication tokens?
He isn't. It's certainly annoying to see someone continually dodge supporting a claim they made though.
DEADMINCE··on Should I use JWTs for authentication tokens?
If it only adds disadvantages, better not to use it though.

What apps did you use to accomplish this?

Have you tried the easy to use distros like mint or elementary?

Why not?

I've been noticing that people refer to any AI that can give information people prefer it wouldn't as 'jailbroken'.

It's interesting to observe that most people don't understand jailbreaking means removing the restrictions a company put on a product to limit you the consumer.

It seems companies limiting devices is now so normalized that people can't imagine something just being open and not under some companies thumb.

DEADMINCE··on Caddy 2.8
It's the idea that Caddy alone made it possible that I am skeptical of. I'm sure it's hyperbole but still.
DEADMINCE··on Caddy 2.8
I haven't used Caddy and I'm sure it's great, but you could have used nginx or anything else as well also. Offering https is honestly pretty easy these days.

I hope you don't give views to those asinine videos that take 30 minutes to 'summarize' a 90 minute movie.

DEADMINCE··on Tmux is worse-is-better
People tend to get attached to certain methods/ways and then defend that no matter what.

That has nothing to do with you being a linux user.
DEADMINCE··on Windows Recall sounds like a privacy nightmare

Probably not the best kind of solution for whatever ADHD issue you are trying to address.

Kind of hypocritical of her then isn't it, given Apple has a horrible history of collecting data also?
DEADMINCE··on Physicists now question the fate of the Universe
At this point why not interact with an LLM to get a better base understanding? Disagreeing with someone more knowledgable whose answers you can't properly grok isn't a great way to learn, surely?
DEADMINCE··on ICQ will stop working from June 26
You just have to buy out the company that owns the domain so you can set it up with your former email. Easy.
DEADMINCE··on ICQ will stop working from June 26
My first thought upon reading this was just to wonder if my account is still somehow active.

I have fond memories of using it, but the end of ICQ doesn't hit me nearly as hard as the end of Geocities did.

DEADMINCE··on Show HN: Pls Fix – Hire big tech employees to appeal account suspensions
Honestly I see it more as giving some rights back to the common man that these giant tech companies don't feel the need to respect.
